I didn't go to college, have no "Education" section on my resume. Senior-level SDE, 8 years of experience.

I've been asked about my education in initial recruiter screens maybe 10% of the time, and its come up later down the line in interviews maybe 20% of the time. I've never had it clearly and obviously preclude me from moving forward (as in obviously dropped from consideration after that conversation).

I've found most people who ask to be curious, but keen to move on and talk about my experience. It might be different at the entry level.
